AggieDave 6 #51 January 7, 2004 Quote Some way to weigh down the rigs while packing. For a boogie that size, its really not the DZ's problem. Here's an easy solution. Tent stake + pull-up chord tied to leg strap = rig no movey.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bbarnhouse 0 #52 January 7, 2004 Quote Some way to weigh down the rigs while packing. I'm not very good at it, so it really does help me to have a way to tie or weigh down my rig so it won't move. Laundry detergent bottles filled with dirt would be fine...y'all do have plenty of dirt to spare out there. Someone pilfered the tarps I had out for DZ dots. I'll make sure to have a supply next year as well as a place to hang rigs. As to the weights, there are several in the main hangar. We can always go on a "mission"...LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunshine 2 #53 January 7, 2004 Quote I heard a lot of people complaining they didn't want to go into the bar because of the smoke. I know that issue is probably out of your hands though. The bar in Deland is smoke-free, so I think I'm just spoiled. Same with the bar at Skydive Chicago. I love it since it's smoke free. I mean a smoker can go outside to smoke, but a non-smoker can't just walk outside to get the icky smoke smell off their clothes. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug!

I never made a fuss about it while I was there because I knew it was my problem. The tent stake idea is good though.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bbarnhouse 0 #56 January 7, 2004 There has been discussion on the smoke issue here in Eloy. Until Arizona has a no smoking law in public places, not a lot to be done. I will however advocate for a smoke free environment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All of the above is true, and I have to admit I love smoke free bars.. but I found another solution for it.. bring more clothes and take a shower after you come out of the bar.. Solved!!

bbarnhouse 0 #58 January 7, 2004 The other piece is that even if you don't frequent the bar, and you hang out by the fire barrels or pit the results are similar.....smelly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
